Guys, if you will not call it beef, let's be objective for once. There are better names on that list like nameseal.com, name protector and more. If vettedname.com come out first with huge votes, (currently 29),it will raise a red flag (shill bidding ) and I can assure you that will happen.
Now tracing the route to Nigeria is another problem for us all, especially cdor777.

Red flag might be raised on vettednames pls

Guys be careful...
Namepros they trace ip

I actually asked the CEO that question if its was against the rule based on the message he sent to me like 7hours ago, he didn't reply. So I felt he didn't want to state the obvious and when I checked I saw that multiple voting is allowed so I felt there is actually no rule since they have screened domains before this stage.

Simpsonrocket:

How much do you intend in selling that name?

He said they might pay as high as 5 figure for the chosen name.

Thank you all for your vote, you guys are wonderful.

Simpsonrocket:

Done. Wish you luck

Thanks

How to make follow-up calls to close a deal

You can't call all your end users, No! You'll even put them off by calling first, I say this from experience, so first off, drop the phone, don't make the call just yet. So whats my method, I do the traditional mailing.

First, make contacts by emails, I know most of us already know this but I'll like to drop a few hints. Use the corporate mailing search tool hunter (dot) io to search for end users, It reveals mails rather than relying on only Google to show you end users. Before you forward that mail, read it, Is it convincing enough? Here is my mail checklist

-Subject line: "Redirect Your Customers To You, Yolanda Clinic" is more in astute than "BostonDentist.com", taking BostonDentist.com a domain example. Make it personal while making it profound.

- Short and plain language: Do not use any grammar a ten year old wouldn't understand, Also, make sure your mail fits the screen of your phone, don't make your buyer scroll

- Positive Energy: Don't be boring. Make the mail interesting and them looking forward to having the domain

- Requests/Keypoints bold: What is noticed at first glance should be all the positives of the domain, make sure to bolden this

- This is the point you raise a possible phone call if they're interested, Always end your mail with a statement on possible follow-up with a call or mail, this is what lets you know if you'll make a call or let them be. But before you let them go, you still throw in a possible follow-up mail in case they didn't get the first mail (note this in the follow-up mail), sometimes the follow-up mail gets you the response.
Don't forget to put your contact and name in the last line of the mail.


OK, Now lets make the call; Not yet, No, still not yet Have you made your research?
Before putting a call through, think of all you'll say. Are you sure you're ready? The second step is to make a thorough research, this takes me weeks sometimes. Don't make a sales call unless you have seen every page of Estibot, Majestic, SEMRush, SimilarWeb and maybe DomainIndex(I no know wetin do them), and others. Some of the data on the pages (e.g. price) are useless though, don't follow blindly, just harvest the ones you need into a note and note the domain strength (s).
Also, make sure to research your domain value by checking on recently closed deals of similar domains, and the niche the domain is. A car repairs company will likely not pay the same as a car sales company, their revenue isn't the same.
Do well to also track your mails to know which was read, forwarded, starred etc. this is what lets you send follow-up mails to those unsure.

Now, shall we make the call? Yes, by now you should feel comfortable and ready. Why are we making a call instead of finishing up in the mail? You are 70% likely to close a deal on the phone than in the mail. Have you ever gotten a response and the interested person disappears from there? This won't happen on the phone. You can also turn around a likely objection on a phone call than in an email.

Call at the right time, schedule yourself to make calls at receiver's best time. Don't call on a Monday morning or night when they are off to bed or Friday Evening you get what I mean, read their location timezone and project what they may be doing at the time. I prefer making calls at my receiver's work break (12PM-1PM) on Wednesday/Thursday. Most likely they are already preparing to close for the week but still have a day or two in the week to think of work stuffs.

How do you best start a sales phone calls? It is very likely your receiver is onto something and is being interrupted, so I go "Hello Martin Daniel, I'm sorry to interrupt you, I'm bla bla (name used in the mail)" - This makes them relax that its not a spam call while chiselling a soft spot that you're not trying to barge into their time so... your first door is open.

Next, Thank them for their interest in the domain, this is little but it has a way of opening a discussion (sometimes) and/or make them more welcoming.

Now is the time, Discuss Business, refer to whatever they said on the mail and use what I call, purpose-benefit-check. Let me give an example

"I'm calling to let you know that I am currently letting go of the domain bla bla bla [purpose], the domain was used by ... for six years and we still get a ton of visitors weekly, about ten thousand to be specific, I'm sure this are organic visitors from previous marketings bla bla bla [benefit].... we are very certain this will bring more customers to your business, Would you be interested in acquiring this domain?" [check]

It usually gets them to come to the table to discuss a possible deal. I have used this several times and it either comes with a Yes, or further enquiries and questions (to clear doubts), be sure to address this questions correctly.

Later tonight, If I am free, I will talk about handling objections. In Sales, objections are inevitable, so prepare for it at every stage of the sales process and get comfortable with someone having questions or saying No. In the meantime, let me crawl back to where I came from.

Thank You!

Thanks for this piece. Please which email tracking app signifies starred and forward email. The one am using only notify read mail.

They introduced a $1 charge per name submitted for premium listing. Effective immediately.

That's strange my domain I submitted since 6th is still pending review. I hope the $1 won't affect it since I have already submitted it before this latest development.

Oga MI even 3k population they sell.

I sold a domain of less than 10k population one of the smallest cities in the state of Texas.

Sure we all know that, I have sold some myself . The population is to increase the probability of selling that's all.

djpoepe:
Yo, what do you do when a service is majorly unregistered in major cities?
Go ahead and register?

Check the population of that cities if they are above 100k you can register it.

terrymason:
seriously.. i was even shock it was available... had to check those copyright on the domain and it was like the domain had it... so i didn't bother to list it, not until now... i registered it during that promo time... if i dey lie watin i even stand to gain.

The domain you are talking about was created in 2010 check the whois record.

KekeNash:
HARDWORKING NATION IS A PROGRESSING NATION. Nigeria are you? NO! If you are that hardworking why are you swimming in a pool of poverty? Why your country is not developing? Zero infrastucture development, why don't you have big agricultural sector? You import almost everything! Hardworking Nigerians can't even afford brand new cars, lazy South Africans buy more than 100 000 brand new vehicles per year while hardworking Nigerians buy less than 10k, shame!
I'm proud to be a lazy South African!

You hate Nigerians yet you are in nairaland created by a Nigerian. Delete your account here and I will take you seriously.

Simpsonrocket:

It take 24hrs for them to pay you once you successfully push or transfer the domain, but to get the money in your Nigerian bank account after the payment is 3-5 working days

Simpsonrocket:
Does it take long.to receive payment from Dan. Payment was made on 28th this month and I'm yet to receive it.

3-5 working days you will get it on Monday.

ab2care:
I sold the domain names SpringfieldAdAgency at Dan while PeoriaAdAgency at Afternic within a week

Wow! Congratulations, how much were they sold for?

Stanbic IBTC confirmed.

Ceefashion:
Why is Dan.com slow in domain transfer, sold a Domain over a week now but they are saying the buyer is yet to initiate transfer

It's not their fault, it is the fault of the buyer if he initiate transfer you will get a notification

Selling brandable domain name is slow sha compare to GEO, 2weeks gone only 2 short on each name in SH. Oluwa give me the patience to wait in this new niche.

2sexycom:
no, there is provision within Xoom where sender I select PayPal as means of paying via Xoom. That is, Xoom has PayPal payment integrated into it. So instead of using credit card, they can choose to use PayPal to send the money

OK I see. Thanks
